…In this movie we're going to continue talking about editing sketch geometry.…But this time we're going to focus on the Trim, Extend and Split commands.…I'll start a new part by clicking the New button…on the toolbar, selecting standard.itp on the template and clicking Create…We'll begin by creating a new sketch.…We'll select Create 2D Sketch and we'll select a…plane to draw on from the origin geometry that's presented.…We're now in the sketch environment and we're ready to begin sketching.…Now, I'm going to go ahead and create a very basic shape.…

I'm going to right-click in the Graphics window and select the Line tool.…And I'm going to lock my geometry to the origin…point of the sketch by left-clicking to start my line.…I'll create a horizontal line.…And just follow arround, and the, the size doesn't matter here.…We're really focused on the shape, so that we…can show the Trim, and Extend, and Split commands.…So I've gone through and made a very basic shape.…If during my design process, I decide that I need…

Already up and running? This course is the next step in building your Autodesk Inventor skillset. Author John Helfen takes you through the interface and key processes of this parametric design system, including sketching, part modeling, assemblies, and drawings. Each process works in conjunction with the rest, allowing you to create parts and assemblies and document them in a way that they can be manufactured. Learn how to set up your project file; create and modify geometry; create extrusions, sweeps, and lofts; build parts with placed features and patterns of features; and create iParts and iFeatures. John also covers assembly visualization techniques, drawing views, and balloons and parts lists.

The course was created and produced by John Helfen. We're honored to host this training in our library.
